Xie Linyun saw that Huo Tianqing froze there as soon as he saw him, and couldn't help being puzzled.

She got off the boat, walked onto the bamboo platform of the ferry where Huo Tianqing was standing at the moment, and said hello: "Boss Huo."

Only then did Huo Tianqing come back to his senses, and he responded with an embarrassed expression: "...Thank you Lake Master."

Xie Linyun felt that his reaction was really strange, so he asked directly: "Wu Ming told me that Boss Huo wants to see me, why?"

Huo Tianqing was silent for a moment, and then said: "I came to Dongting from Guanzhong on behalf of the big boss, and I should pay a visit to the lake owner before leaving."

This is not unreasonable, but he was so surprised when he saw himself, why?

Xie Linyun thought so, and simply continued: "Except for this?"

Huo Tianqing was startled.

She continued: "If Boss Huo has something to say, you might as well just say it. I don't like people guessing. Boss Yan is willing to give me help this time. Of course, I won't embarrass the people in Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion."

As soon as these words came out, Huo Tianqing's expression changed again.

He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, before he hesitated and said: "Actually, I want to see the Lake Lord, and it has nothing to do with the Big Boss and Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion."

Obviously, he hadn't finished speaking, so Xie Linyun didn't interrupt, and waited quietly for him to continue.

Huo Tianqing, as the manager of the Jewelry Pavilion, has a way of observing words and demeanor that far exceeds that of his peers.

He only glanced at Xie Linyun's expression from the corner of his eye, and didn't pause any longer.

Huo Tianqing said: "I want to see the Lake Lord because I have been looking for someone."

"The year before last in Shangyuan, I happened to see her in Jingzhou. At that time, the lights were dim, but I caught a glimpse." He paused, "I only remember that she was carrying a red gun behind her back."

Xie Linyun: "..."

To be honest, even without the red gun in the last sentence, just Shangyuan and Jingzhou the year before last were enough to make Xie Linyun react.

Huo Tianqing continued: "At that time, there were people coming and going, and I was half a river away from her, so I couldn't get there. I tried to inquire in the city afterwards, but I couldn't find anything."

Xie Linyun again: "..."

Huo Tianqing didn't need to say what happened next, Xie Linyun could more or less imagine it.

It was nothing more than Huo Tianqing's impression of his own gun, after many inquiries in Jianghu, and finally found that the person he saw at that time was most likely Xie Linyun, the owner of Dongting Lake.

Xie Linyun couldn't help being a little embarrassed, but still admitted: "I was indeed in Jingzhou in Shangyuan last year."

Hearing this, Huo Tianqing pursed his lips and said, "I just saw the Lake Lord coming through the fog, and I've already confirmed this."

"Uh..." Xie Linyun didn't know what to say, so he could only continue, "In addition to confirming this, Director Huo has other things to do?"

Huo Tianqing probably didn't expect her to ask such a question, and didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

Because he caught a glimpse in Jingzhou back then, he has been thinking about it until today. He finally found him and stood in front of him, but he didn't know what to do next.

In fact, before Xie Linyun came to see him by boat, he even kept secretly praying that he had guessed wrong, that the beauty under the moon he saw in Jingzhou back then was not the owner of Dongting Lake.

Because if he is really the No. [-] owner of Dongting Lake in the world, how could he be the chief manager of the Jewelry Pavilion?

Huo Tianqing was extremely disappointed in his heart, but he still couldn't express it.

He thought about it for a long time, and in the end he could only describe his dreaming in the past two years in a more euphemistic way.

He said: "When I saw Jingzhou that day, Huo has never forgotten it. This trip to Dongting finally solved the confusion in my heart and let go of one thing. From now on, Huo can also return his energy to martial arts and martial arts. The business of the Jewelery Pavilion is on."

Xie Linyun has experienced Huang Yaoshi's experience, and it can be said that he was forced to break through some emotional barriers between men and women.

So when Huo Tianqing said this, of course she understood.

She was a little ashamed, because it was not easy for her to answer.

After pondering for a while, she decided to change the subject.

"I heard from Wuming that Director Huo is the descendant of the Heavenly Bird Sect?" Xie Linyun asked, "Then why did you become the director for Boss Yan?"

Huo Tianqing said indifferently: "I owe the big boss my life, so I will not hesitate to do anything for him."

Xie Linyun: "?!" Owing a life is so serious?

"At the beginning of last year, I heard that the Lake Lord held a competition for hegemony in Dongting. The winner will get a reading of the "Nine Yin Manual". I almost lost my life in a fierce battle, if the big boss hadn't passed by, my soul would have returned to hell."

Xie Linyun: "... Are you on the road alone?"

He nodded: "I know that my martial arts are not good enough to win the hegemony competition, and I also know that my father just passed away, and many people are waiting to trouble me for the Heavenly Bird Sect, so I didn't disclose my itinerary to anyone."

Xie Linyun originally wanted to say that she was blocked by the enemies, was that a little unlucky, but then she thought about it, the news that she was going to hold the hegemony meeting was so widely spread that it could be said that the whole martial arts knew about it.

Since Huo Tianqing saw her in Jingzhou, he had been asking around for her. There was a grand meeting in Dongting, but he didn't disclose it to the public. Those who wanted to target him would definitely guess that he was coming to Dongting.

Thinking of this, Xie Linyun couldn't help but feel even more embarrassed.

She wouldn't blame herself for Huo Tianqing's death for Yan Tiezha, but thinking of Yan Tiezha's family history mentioned by Wuming, she still wanted to remind Huo Tianqing a little bit.

"If you want to repay Boss Yan for saving his life, then there's no need to sacrifice your life for him." Xie Linyun said, "Even if you don't spare your own life, as the person with the highest status in the Bird Sect today, what kind of trouble will you get into in the future because of the Jewelry Pavilion? If there is any dispute, it will definitely bring the entire Heavenly Bird Sect into it."

Xie Linyun could tell that Huo Tianqing had a temperament of repaying favors, and it would probably be useless to directly say that Yan Tiezha was not a good person to persuade him not to stay in Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion.

So she simply skipped this level without mentioning it, and directly talked about the Heavenly Bird School established by his father.

As expected, Huo Tianqing was silenced for a moment.

"I told them earlier that it was my personal debt of gratitude, and it has nothing to do with the Heavenly Bird Sect." Finally he said, "I also told the big boss that, I believe the big boss understands what I mean."

Xie Linyun: "Whether he and the people from the Tianqin faction understand it is secondary. The important thing is that in the eyes of those who want to trouble him, Yan Tiezha, you must be one."

Reminding this point, Xie Linyun can actually be said to be benevolent and righteous.

But Huo Tianqing focused on another important point: "Listen to the owner of the lake, someone wants to trouble the big boss?"

Xie Linyun: "..." You are too loyal!

The next moment, the young man who looked like a pine tree in front of him knelt down towards her with a plop.

"The big boss has saved my life. Without him, I would not be where I am today." Huo Tianqing said, "If the Lake Lord knows who is going to trouble him, please let the Lake Lord tell me so that I can make some preparations in advance .”

"Then what if he, Yan Tiezha, is the one to ignore this trouble?" Xie Linyun asked.

This question caused Huo Tianqing to fall into silence again.

At the end of the silence, he whispered, "If that's the case, I'd like to exchange my life for that of the big boss."

It is equivalent to saying that he is willing to die instead of Yan Tiezha.

Hearing this, Xie Linyun was shocked on the one hand, and on the other hand felt that this person was a genius in terms of brains.

She was very tired, and said: "Since you have said so, then I will not stop you, just let you go."

"Then, can the owner of the lake tell—"

"I don't need to tell you. When you go back, tell Yan Tiesha exactly what I told you, and just ask him what's going on. He must know what I'm talking about." Xie Linyun waved his hand and decided to end the meeting early .

She always wanted to do whatever she wanted, and when she decided to go back, she went back immediately.

Standing by the water, Huo Tianqing watched her nimbly jumped onto the boat and headed towards Junshan Island through the fine snow in the air, unable to look away for a long time.

Xie Linyun actually noticed that his gaze was hotter than in the previous conversation, but he never looked back.

After returning to Peach Blossom Forest, she ran into Wuming who was instructing all the staff.

Wuming just finished his lesson. Seeing her coming back, he immediately waved his hands to let the others go on their own, and then came up to her and asked her, "The lake master has seen Huo Tianqing? How is it? Why is he looking for you?"

Xie Linyun: "It's nothing serious, I just want to see me."

She didn't talk about the one-sided "encounter" in Jingzhou two years ago.

Although Wuming believed it without thinking too much, he still had some doubts: "I see that the Lake Lord seems to have chatted with him for a long time."

Xie Linyun: "Aren't we all curious before that he has such a status in the martial arts world but went to work as the general manager for Yan Tiezha, so I asked."

For this kind of gossip, Wuming has always been more enthusiastic than her, so he immediately pricked up his ears: "Then, did the Lake Master ask?"

Xie Linyun nodded, and briefly repeated what Huo Tianqing told him.

At the end of the talk, she couldn't help shaking her head and sighing: "This person is actually good-natured, but it's a pity that luck has tricked others. Now that Yan Tiezha has been identified, he has to work hard for him to repay his kindness. I don't think others can persuade him much."

"That's not necessarily true." Wuming said, "The lake master can't persuade him, that's because the lake master also feels that he should be repaid with his life for saving his life, and the lake master has some appreciation for him, so he respects his ideas very much. "

Although this was not wrong, Xie Linyun was still quite surprised when he heard it: "Wait, don't you also want to persuade me?"

Wuming squinted his eyes: "He is a talent."

At this time, Xie Linyun didn't know what the phrase "he is a talent" meant, because Wuming went to look for Huo Tianqing again without explaining.

And when he brought Huo Tianqing back to visit her, she finally understood.

He is a talent.

So we might as well keep him for our own use.

But the question is, how did Wuming do it? !
